A Saving Tip of NY Metro Card

Subway is essential for New York sight seeing.
You can buy single ride ticket, but buying Metro card is convenient.
Metro Card is used by charging money and swipe before you enter subway gate.
If you charge $10, you will get a little bonus of 50 cent.
This is also one of the saving money, but today I'm going to tell you more basic tip.


Metro card itself costs $1. If you are an honest person, you might buy one Metro card each.
However, you don't have to buy each ! One card for one group is enough!!

New York subway is a flat rate of $ 2.5, and you need to swipe a card before you enter the gate.
When exiting from the gate, you don't have to swipe the card again.
This means, you can share the card with your group.

After the first person swipe and go through the gate, pass the card to the next person behind,
and the person who received the card can do same way.
It seems just a one dollar saving, but this can save time as well.
Because when the balance is low, it eliminates the time to charge each card.
